So what's the catch with the 5 hour energy drink?

Question

??i just wanna no.. it says its so perfect.

what is so bad about drinking any enrgy drink. whats it do to your body?

Answer 1

well first of all energy drinks have alot of sugar, secondly alot of caffiene isnt good, so i think it has same caffiene as a cup of coffee but it also has stuff like ginseng that gives energy also but without caffiene

it says guarana is bad on the commercial, but i dont know why i meen bawls is my favorite energy drink and its the best energy as in it gives me the most energy, but it doesnt have too much caffiene, most of the energy must be from guarana

Answer 2

It doesnt last for 5 hours and energy drinks cause you heart to pump faster also your body gets filled with sugar and caffene and it is really bad for your blood and heart

Answer 3

Well taste it! hehe it is absolutely disgusting. That's one catch. Another... it does nada for you. Well maybe for some people it does, but for me, nothing. The big promotion with 5-hr is that it is supposed to be healthier than most energy drinks, but it tastes like c**p. I'd rather swallow a caffeine pill myself.

A lot of energy drinks are bad for you because they contain too much caffeine and sugar in them. Sugar is not good for you, I'm sure you are already aware of that. And too much caffeine in your system can lead to heart attacks (the most serious after effect), but more likely you'll just become addicted to it and overtime possibly create some sort of heart related health problem.

To avoid this I drink energy drinks that are lower in caffeine and sugar and loaded with vitamins and antioxidants instead. These drinks give me the boost I need, I don't crash later on in the day and they are much healthier for me than sucking down a monster.

There is a pretty good article and some examples at this site http://www.voernix.com/2008/07/frs.html.
